A memory element that is connectible to a processor and that is positioned outside of the processor, comprising: at least one of address lines and data lines via which the memory element is connectible to the processor, each one of the at least one of address lines and data lines including an LVDS structure, each LVDS structure including a receiver and a driver integrated within the memory element.
2. A device, comprising: a processor; and a memory element positioned outside of the processor, wherein: the processor and the memory element are linked via at least one of address lines and data lines, and each one of the at least one of address lines and data lines includes an LVDS structure that includes a driver and a receiver, wherein the driver and the receiver are integrated within the memory element.
3. The memory element according to claim 1 , wherein: only each of the data lines includes the LVDS structure.
4. The memory element according to claim 1 , wherein: any number of the at least one of address lines and data lines in the LVDS structure are configured as bit lines.
5. The memory element according to claim 2 , wherein: only each of the data lines includes the LVDS structure.
6. A device, comprising: a processor; and at least two memory elements positioned outside of the processor, wherein: the processor and the at least two memory elements are linked via at least one of address lines and data lines, each one of the processor and the at least two memory elements includes an LVDS structure, and each LVDS structure includes a driver, a receiver, and a terminating resistor, wherein, for the LVDS structures included in the at least two memory elements, the driver, the receiver and the terminating resistor are integrated within the memory elements.
